I have made every effort to represent the colours as closely as possible, but please remember that what you see may vary due to the differences in colour representation on different computer monitors/screens.

Covered with a graduated design of used Machin-design (classic British) postage stamps in shades of cocoa pink and brown, this medium-sized notebook has been stampified into something utterly unique. No-one else will ever own a notebook quite like this one! The postage stamps have been individually soaked from their original envelopes (pic 4), dried, then glued into place with an acid-free, xylene-free adhesive. They still bear fragments of postmarks and other cancellation marks as a testament to their former active service for the Royal Mail.

Use this altered notebook for all your first class ideas, urgent to-do lists, keeping track of your penpal's addresses or a journal of your outgoing/incoming mail.

The front cover features a collage of used British postage stamps. The stamps used in this design were first issued in between the early 1970s up to the 1990s.

DATE STAMP
The back cover is left blank, except for a hand-stamped TangleMail Prioritaire 'postmark'. The postmark will be date-stamped with the date of collage, as standard. However...

...if you would prefer, I can personalise with a date of your choice to commemorate a birthday, anniversary, or any special occasion. Simply select the 'custom date' option from the drop-down list, and specify your chosen date in a 'note to seller' at checkout. I will then collage & date-stamp a new notebook, just for you!

Please note, there is an additional charge of £1 for custom dates prior to 2010 as these must be individually hand-set before stamping.

NOTEBOOK DETAILS
Simply packaged in a plain cellophane packet, this is a customised, hardcover, high quality recycled paper notebook with sturdy (approx. 2mm thick) kraft covers, and white metal wire binding. The front & end pages are blank, with are 80 ruled pages (160 sides to write on) inbetween - plenty of space for all your travel notes or anything else you would like to record.
